Belle and Sebastian Write a Song About...You

Win a contest and become the subject of a B&S single

Belle and Sebastian songs tend to concern the lives of dreamy loners, depressed students, lovestruck kids-- exactly the same types of people who buy a lot of Belle and Sebastian records. And now those dots shall be connected. The band is holding a contest in which Stuart Murdoch will write a song about the winner and release it as a 7".

The band will pick a winner. If that's you, frontman Stuart Murdoch will fly out to wherever you live, spend an afternoon with you, and then write and record a song all about you. Belle and Sebastian will then release the song on an exclusive 7" in 2011.

Sorry, international fans: the contest is open to U.S. residents only.
